New Delhi, July 06: Senior BJP leader L K Advani today hoped that the strike called against price rise would put an end to criticism that the opposition was not doing enough on the issue.
“Through you (the media) I would like to thank the people of the country for making Bharat Bandh an unprecedented success. I would also like to thank the people of Delhi and our supporters here for this success,” he said.
He was speaking to reporters on the sidelines of a function held to mark the birth anniversary of party ideologue Shyama Prasad Mookherjee.
The NDA and Left partied had yesterday called for a Bharat Bandh to protest against fuel price hike.
Advani said he had been hearing criticism from some quarters that opposition parties were not taking up the issue of price rise in a big way.
